My new Panasonic 50dx740u has 2 tuners, so I can record one channel and watch another.  The TV software is rubbish though.

So I was surprised to turn on the PS3 and going through the Video options, there was one for the Panasonic > Tuners > Ch1, CH2 (etc). I went in and could access all the channels over the network via the Playstation - plugged into a computer monitor.  So my TV was driving one channel, then the play station was driving another.  There is an android app (called Panasonic media centre - also rubbish) that does this too, but I assumed it would be proprietary.  Is appears not!

My question is what do I need to do to be able to use this second tuner on my PC?  I presume the PC software is better at recording / series link etc. than the TV would be...

Cheers!
